If u like a bunch of action it's not bad. Is it a great movie? No. Like I said I enjoyed the females in it. Lol. Rock was pretty funny in it. Overall I'd give it a C

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread

I just saw Pain and Gain as well, and it's safe to say I'm definitely not a big fan of it. The fact that it's based off a true story is sad. It had its' moments but those are few and far between. I should've waited until it hit Redbox instead.

Well the trailer made me think it was like a comedy/action, but I felt that the three main characters were stupid, the kidnappee was a jerk, and there really wasn't anybody to root for. It felt like it had no direction, like it couldn't make up it's mind as to whether it wanted to be an action or a comedy, and the grisly parts towards the end felt out of place. And I didn't like the multiple references towards its being a true story, they felt like reminders that crazy asshats like the protagonists really exist out there. I guess if you're not expecting anything out of that movie, it's worth seeing, but if you expect comedy or action it's disappointing.

Great movie IMO. One of my favorites

The commercials made me think it was a comedy as well but it really isn't. they also pushed the whole "American dream " thing too much but like I said if u like some good action scenes, boobs and ass, and a crazy story then u will like it. I will say I didn't think marky mark was on his best in this film.

On a side note, they really need to stop making the Fast and furious. It's beyond played out now

And I'm not sure if this rumor is true or not but I heard there will be a new TMNT in 2014, Megan fox as April O'Neil.

Yup, I'm gonna go into it with absolutely no expectations with how much they are changing, wight the one positive being that the original comic book creator of the series when it was actually a lot grittier, is on board. Still pretty unnerved by all the extreme changes.
